Arguably the best player onthe field, wasn’t.

A week into contact drillsduring preseason football prac-tices at New Richmond HighSchool, a four-year starter andteam leader had participatedfor part of only one practice.Not because of bad grades. Notfor disciplinary reasons. Noteven because he didn’t feel upto playing.

Rather, he’d been held out tocomply with the law. A newOhio requirement – signed intolaw inDecemberof 2012anden-acted in April of this year – pre-vents players with concussionsfrom returning to action toosoon.

This particular player took ablow to the head on the first dayof practice and had yet to re-ceivemedical clearance to play.(The Community Press is notnaming the student-athlete forprivacy reasons; he has sincebeen cleared to play.)

“You can’t be too careful,”first-year Lions head coachJosh Stratton said. “He had hisbell rung, for sure.Butwith thisnew law in Ohio, anything thateven looks like a concussionhas

to be taken off the field, testedand cleared.

“If a player is dehydratedand gets a headache from thatand tells a coach or a trainer,wehave to have them checked.We’ve lost some player days tothat kind of scenario, but keep-ingkidssafe isa lotmore impor-tant than sending them outthere if they’re injured or po-tentially injured.”

The legislation known asHouse Bill 143 “implementsstatewide standards (for) whena young athlete demonstratesthe signs or symptoms of a con-cussion or traumatic brain inju-ry,” said state Rep. MichaelStinziano (D-Columbus), one ofthe bill’s co-authors.

“The legislation also prohib-its a school authority from al-lowing a student to practice foror compete in interscholasticathletics until the student hassubmitted a signed formstatingthat the student and the stu-dent's parent or other guardianhas received a concussion andhead injury information sheetcreated by the (Ohio) Depart-ment of Health.”

Such precautions are a farcry from from the playing days

HAMILTON COUNTY — While concus-sionsmay get themost attentionwhen itcomes to injuries, they account for just14 percent of all youth sports injuries(age 19 and under) according to a studydone by USA Today.

The study analyzed youth sports inju-ries in 2011 and 2012 and determined thethree most common sports injuries aresprains/strains, fractures and contusions.

When being more specific, OxfordPhysicalTherapy’sLizReissaid injuriesto the ankle, anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) and the shoulder’s are the mostcommon injuries she sees as a physicaltherapist among high school athletes.

In today’s world of expensive shoes,the argument has come about whetheror not a shoe can cause an injury. Theperception is you seemoreACL tears to-day than you did 10-20 years ago whenshoes weren’t as advanced, but Reis be-

lieves there are a variety of factors thatplay into any injury.

“… There is a push for a more naturalshoe,” she said. “From a physical thera-pist’s perspective, if your footmechanicsareoff, thenit’sgoingtoworkupthechainandcauseproblems.…There isnorhymeor reason as to when these people are de-veloping these injuries, but in theory,most people need a good, supportiveshoe.”

Reis has seen an increase in IliotibialBand Syndrome, or more commonlyknown as the ITSB, in high school ath-letes. Also known as “Runners Knee,”according to runnersworld.com it oc-curs when the IT band, a ligament thatruns down the outside of the thigh fromthe hip to the shin, is tight or inflamed.

Theproblemwiththeinjuryis itcanbehidden with the use of anti-inflammato-ries and many athletes get back to theirrespective sport before the injury is fully

healed.“The injury is not so

much worrisome, but itcan be difficult to rehab,”Reis said. “The (IT band)

crosses the knee, so everytimewebendourknee theband actually slips underthe bone and it’s just a re-petitive injury. Peoplejust need to give it time toheal, rest and strengthenthe other muscles.”

One trend Reis hasseen lately is an increasein hamstring strains inyoungerathletes.Therea-son is factually unknown,but Reis has her opinion.

“I think it goes alongwithpeoplegaininganun-derstanding of stretchingand warming up,” shesaid. “Some kids as theyare going through growthspurts, their bones areelongating and the mus-

cles are being forced tostretch out at the sametime. So the kids are try-ing to stretch and usingthese muscles when theyare working out, so theystart to get some strain inthe muscle. I think that iswhere a lot of these ham-string strains are comingin as they go throughthese growth spurts.”

ACL tears, ITSB andhamstring problems arejust three of hundreds ofinjuries that occur eachhigh school sports season,but the prevention is allthe same: Rest, addingprevention and strength-ening exercises and prop-er technique top the list ofway to prevent injuries.

“These statistics don’thave to be part of thegame ifwe takesomesim-ple precautions,” KateCarr of Safe Kids World-wide said as part of theUSA Today study.

HYDE PARK — Dogwaste bags will continueto be provided in HydePark.

Hyde Park Neighbor-hood Council board mem-ber Carl Uebelacker an-nounced during the Au-gust meeting that MuttMitt containers in thecommunity will continueto be stocked.

Uebelacker, who iswith council’s Environ-ment Committee, said theHyde Park Neighborhood

Improvement Corp. hadfound several sponsorsthat will provide fundingand volunteers.

Several months ago,council hadannouncedthe MuttMitt pro-gramwould like-ly be dis-continuedin the sum-mer be-cause of

the expenses involved.Hyde Park Neighbor-

hood Council board mem-

ber Janet Buening said itcost the ImprovementCorp.about$5,000annual-ly to buy about 30,000mitts and have the con-tainers maintained.

“We just felt it was nota good use of our limitedfunds,” saidBuening,whois also a member of theImprovement Corp.

Stan Kittle, a boardmember of the Improve-ment Corp., said the Soci-ety for the Prevention ofCruelty toAnimalsandIn-visible Fence will coverthe costs of filling theMutt Mitt containers as

well as provide volun-teers.

Both the SPCA and In-visible Fence will havetheir logos on the plasticbags.

“We thought it was agreat opportunity,” saidKerry McManus, presi-dent of Invisible Fence.

McManus, who alsoserves on the board of di-rectors for the CincinnatiSPCA, said 10,000 bagswill be prepared.

“The community madeit clear they wanted MuttMitts on the Square,” saidKittle. “This will be goodfor all of us.”

Buening said the MuttMitts help maintain theaesthetics of the area.

“We will continue tohave clean sidewalks,”she said.

“The dog owners arevery responsible.”

of University of Cincin-nati orthopedistDr. Ange-lo Colosimo – a formerBengals team doctor whowas a high school and col-lege player in his ownright.

“When I played, yougot drilled, you didn’teven know where youwereandyouwentback tothehuddleandcarried theball again,”Colosimosaid.“It’s amazing where thescience has gone whenyou look at the long-termdamage of tramauticbrain injuries. It affectsyou long term. The idea isto limit that.

“You can’t play (foot-ball) without contact. Ifyouplay this game, you’regoing to get your headdinged. It’s going to hap-pen. What we’re trying todo is to limit the damagethat’s done.”

Dr. Edward Marches-chi leads The Christ Hos-pital sportsmedicine con-cussion management pro-gram and supports thenew state law.

“I think the state law isanecessarystep toensurethat people involved insports are being educatedand that our youth ath-letes are being protectedfrom suffering from a po-tentially catastrophic in-jury when the brain istraumatized from a con-cussion,” he said. “Con-cussion is a mild traumat-ic brain injury, but thereis nothing ‘mild' about it.”

Ask Loveland parentScott Schlesner, whoseson Cole took a line driveto the head in a summer-league baseball gamefour years ago, causingtraumatic brain injury.

“It’s really encourag-ing that there is a greatersense of awareness in so-

ciety about the dangers ofhead injury,” Schlesnersaid. “Unlike a lot of otherinjuries,head injury is theone thing that nobodyreally knows the long-term ramifications, howtheymayaffectyou,downthe road.

UC trainer Bob Man-gine, who sees patients ofall ages through Nova-care in Northern Ken-tucky and Cincinnati,agreed.

“It’s critical because ofthe long-term problemyou can develop,” he said.“If you tear an ACL, youcan fix it and it doesn’t af-fect your memory, giveyou dementia or depressyou. When you start tomess with the brain,there’s a lot of long termimplications.”

“There’s a lot moreknowledge to what hap-pens to their brains laterin life,” Anderson HighSchool trainer April Nier-man said. “A lot of kidsthat have gotten their bellrung have sat out a periodof time.There’saprogres-sion to come back. It’s aperiod of four to five daysto get them to come backafter their symptoms aregone.”

The new law broadensthe protection by requir-ing standards for thoseparticipating in youthsports organizations notaffiliated with the OhioHigh School Athletic As-sociation.

“Ultimately,HouseBill143 sets a uniformed stan-dard for concussion treat-ment in sports activitiesthroughout the entirestate, and we will be re-ducing the risk of sporad-ic enforcement that exist-ed previously,” Stinzianosaid.

Reporters Kurt Back-scheider, Jeanne Houck,Kelly McBride and ScottSpringer contributed tothis story.

COLUMBIA TWP. —Trustees have agreed toissue up to $1.5 million inrevenue bonds to help fi-nance a medical officebuilding project on Lu-cille Drive.

The bonds will be usedto pay for public infra-structure around the site,which is vacant propertyowned by the Camden

Land Group of Ross-moyne and representedby the Al Neyer companyof downtown Cincinnati.

The Columbia Town-ship Board of Trusteestook the action Friday,Aug. 2,when it also signedoff on a tax incentiveagreement in which theLucille Drive propertyowners will for up to 30years pay the township“annual service pay-ments” in a negotiated

amount in lieu of propertytaxes that otherwisewould have been collect-ed for improvementsmade on the land.

The township will usethe service payments topay off the bonds.

The possibility of com-mercial flight returningto Lunken Airport has putnoise concerns back onthe radar for some Mt.Lookout residents.

Allegiant Air contact-ed theEastEndmunicipalairfield earlier this yearand expressed interest inlaunching two to fourflights a week at LunkenAirport, most likely to Or-lando, Fla.

The city of Cincinnatihas hired a consultant todetermine what infra-structure upgrades areneeded – at least a securi-ty checkpoint and ex-panded waiting area to

meet federal regulationsand accommodate travel-ers – to bring commercialairline service back toLunken Airport.

Residents from EastSide communities andFort Thomas successfullyfought to keep commer-cial service out of Lunkenmore than a decade agobecause they feared in-creased noise would hurtproperty values.

Now they worry theproblems will return ifcommercial air service isallowed, said EricFlamme, the vice presi-dent of the Mt. LookoutCommunity CouncilBoard of Directors.

“It hasn’t been an ac-tive concern in the lastfewyears ... but as aboardit’s something on our ra-dar and something that isa potential concern,” hesaid at a recent meeting.

Councilwoman Laure

Quinlivan, who lives inMt. Lookout and is run-ning for re-election, saidsheremembershowbad itwas in the past and under-standshow that canaffectthequality of life inneigh-borhoods surrounding theairport.

Though not all detailshavebeenworkedout, shetold residents that thisdeal would likely includeafewflightsaweekatnor-mal hours, and AllegiantAir is supposed to be us-ing newer aircraft thatare not as noisy.

“We always want to bereasonable and allowbusiness to flourish, but Idon’twant (Lunken) to be-come a busy hub for airtraffic,” she said at the re-cent community councilmeeting.

“There is only somuchLunken can do becauseit’s small. This could be agood thing ... but I’m con-

cerned also because I liveover here.”

Quinlivan acknowl-edged there has beensome talk about the needto expand the runways atLunken Airport, but saidProcter & Gamble is themain driver in those dis-cussions, not Allegiant.

Mt. Lookout residentBruce Holtgren urgedcity officials to exercisecaution as they movethrough this issue.

“Four flights could be-come six and then eight,and then it’s two airlines,”he said. “If we do thisright of course itwould be

fine.”The airport nowserves

corporate jets, public andprivate charters andsmall recreational air-craft, including housingfleets for Procter & Gam-ble, Macy’s, Kroger,American FinancialGroup and public charterservice Ultimate AirShuttle.

Even if the city up-grades the airport tomeetfederal standards, thereare no guarantees that Al-legiant Air would launchoperations at Lunken.

Lunken commercial flight concerns expressedAirport noise,traffic, quality oflife among issuesBy Lisa Wakelandlwakeland@communitypress.com

COMMERCIALSERVICECOMEBACK?Allegiant Air – the most

profitable airline in theU.S. – has jets on orderand is looking to expandthis fall and early nextyear. Small and secondaryairports like Lunken fitAllegiant Air’s businessmodel.It would allow the

airline to avoid competi-tion, and the cost ofoperating out of thoseairfields typically is cheap-er than at large commer-cial airports like Cincin-nati/Northern KentuckyInternational Airport,which also has showninterest in Allegiant.Mayoral candidate

John Cranley, who lives inHyde Park, has recentlyexpressed his concernsabout this issue. As a citycouncilman from 2000-2009, Cranley led effortsto keep commercialservice out of Lunken andhelped pass a 2002 ordi-nance that prohibits thecity from actively recruit-ing commercial service.

The city of Cincinnati has hired a consultant to determinewhat infrastructure upgrades are needed to bringcommercial airline service back to Lunken Airport.Residents have expressed concerns about more noise andair traffic if Allegiant Air starts operating multiple weeklyflights.ADAM BIRKAN/STAFF

WALNUT HILLS — In lieu of a scrapbookof her high school years, Maryn Lowry’sfather followed her around after schooland on weekends with a video camera.

While that might sound intrusive to theaverage teenager, it resulted in a pricelessgift for the Walnut Hills running standoutand her teammates. The final product ofcountless practices andmeets was “Rise,”a 118-minute documentary of the WalnutHills distance program.

John Lowry’s work premiered at theKenwood Theater Aug. 8 in front of audi-ence full of Walnut Hills supportersmunching popcorn.

The idea came as his daughter beganrunning in junior high.

“It was this obscure little program,”Lowry said. “That’s just about when (Prin-cipal) Jeff Brokamp came in. When hecame, all of these teams started to im-prove. I just saw a story. We were sittingthereas thekidsgotbetterandbetterand Isaid, ‘Someone needs to chronicle this!’”

From there, a hobby was born.Six years later, Walnut Hills had won a

district title. Eventually, his daughterqualified individually for the state meetand signed to run at Iowa State.

“It was a really cool idea and now it’s soreal,”Maryn Lowry said. “He spent prettymuch every night sincemy freshmanyearat least thinking about it, if not doingworkon it.”

Though he’s extremely proud of hisdaughter’s accomplishments, the egalitar-ian aspect of the fall discipline appealed tohim.

“This movie displays what cross coun-try is like,” Lowry said. “It’s very much ateam sport. It’s one of those rare sportswhere thekids that are in themiddle or theback of the pack are most important.”

Among those runningwithMarynwereHannah Schroeder, Erin McAuliffe, Kel-leyColeman,Collier Summay,TessaWard,Skylar Bruggeman, Frankie Rimer, OliviaKappers and Heather Luken.

“I’mveryproud of the fact the programhas come a very long way in a fairly shorttime,” Cross country coach Bill Valenzanosaid. “I have a number of girls who justgraduated that are responsible for thatsuccess.”

Valenzano is featured prominently inthe movie, along with junior high coachDon Stocker and varsity assistant/ “Rise”narrator Paul Malott.

Lowryalso followedhisdaughter on thespring track circuit as the girls went fromroads and trails to circular tracks.

“It’s kind of been a joke around my col-leagues,” Walnut Hills track coach Aman-da Robinson said. “They always ask,

‘Where’s your camera crew?’ For thisgroup of girls to spend the last four yearsreally developing our distance program isreally exciting. Now we get to go see it onthe big 40-foot screen.”

Madewithhis ownresources, Lowry in-tends to keep themovie private, though hehopes to have it shown at the Walnut Hillsauditoriumand in the running community.

As for his daughter, if a picture’s worthone-thousand words; what is a movieworth?

“It’s something that I’ll cherish for therest of my life,” Maryn Lowry said. “Thishas been the best year and he captured ev-ery secondof it. I’ll be able to show it tomyown kids.”

HYDE PARK — Time for thesilver (Knights) lining.

After a dark cloud in 2012 -field hockey coach Jen Williscalled it “tough,moreof a learn-ing season” - Summit CountryDay sits poised on the brink ofsuccess.

That’s due in no small part tothe number of players comingout for the team this season; 27in all, including eight freshmen.

“We’re thrilledwith thenum-berswehave,”Willis said. “Thisis the first time to my knowl-edge that we have enough tohavea truevarsity-juniorvarsi-ty split.

“Everybody back from lastyear has some varsity minutesand the younger kids are im-proving every day. It’s very en-couraging.”

Senior midfielder MariePowers and senior defender La-ni Toebben lead the returningcontingent. Junior CarolineCurrie steps into the goal afterplaying all summer.

Willis said the summer workand preseason for her teamhave been invaluable, especial-ly coming off a year fraughtwith injuries.

“Ihopewe’recoming inmorefit this year than in years pastand that will translate to peoplebeing healthy all season,” shesaid. “We’remostlyfocusedonalot of youth and a lot of energycombined with some very goodretuning leadership and gettingsome upsets come October.”

Summit competed in aleague previewAug.10. The Sil-ver Knights began the regularseason Aug. 27 (after Journaldeadlines) against KetteringFairmont.

“We’re in an interesting posi-tion playing a Division I sched-ule,” Willis said. “We really em-brace that. We’re always in theposition to be underdogs, whichcan be kind of fun.”

EAST WALNUT HILLS — The morethings change, the more they stay thesame.

So it seems for St. Ursu-la Academy’s field hockeyteam. Head coach SarahCatlin’s team finished sec-ond in league play and lostin the regional finals to ri-val Ursuline Academy onpenalty strokes.

Nine players from thatteam graduated, includingeight starters, but don’t expect a downyearordiminishedexpectationsfromtheBulldogs.

“The key with our team is we play avery challenging schedule,” Catlin said.“If we learn from that as we go along, Ithink our potential in the postseason isunlimited.”

Seniors Morgan Voytek and Sophia

“She’s played on both the national fu-turesU16 andU19 teams,”Catlin said. “Ifshe’s not scoring them, she’s involved insetting up the scores. She’s a great weap-on for us.”

SUAopened its regular seasonAug. 26(after Journal deadlines) against Oak-wood and plays its home opener Aug. 29against Talawanda.

“Every year it looks like somebodymightbea favoriteandrunawaywith theleague, but they almost never do,” Catlinsaid. “It’s a fun league, different fromtheother sports with the public schools andprivate schools, the bigger schools andthe smaller schools. Youknoweach otherso well from playing them so often andyouget a real sense of respect for one an-other.”

SPRINGFIELDTWP.—Ata school with an unbeliev-able swimming tradition,one would think thatwouldtranslate tosuccessfor the water polo pro-gram.

That hasn’t been thecase in the first two yearsat St. Xavier High School,but coach Mike Robertsbelieves that trend mayhave changed in the pro-gram’s third year of exis-tence.

Grant House headlinesa group of freshmenwhom Roberts expects tomake an immediate im-pact. According to Rob-erts, House has shatteredthe record books for theCincinnati Marlins swimteam and is one of veryfew accomplished swim-

mers to participate in wa-ter polo.

“The first season wehad a lot of seniors comeout so we had a bunch ofpeople who had neverplayed before, which wasgreat becausewehada lotof mature bodies,” Rob-erts said. “Itwas the samething last year. This yearwe have about a dozenfreshmen with a lot ofpromise.”

House, along with sen-ior captain Jake Wester-kamp and goalie MattDoyle, has helped theBombers to a 3-1 start in2013. Roberts’ squad tookdown Worthington Kil-bourne, Sylvania and Na-poleon, but lost to St.Charles High School atthe 2013 Sprint-Off Clas-sic at Napoleon HighSchool Aug. 16-17.

Experience has a lot to

do with the early success,and that is justwhatWest-erkampbrings to thepool.

“He’s smart,” Robertssaid of his captain. “Waterpolo is a game that re-quires some strength,some athleticism, butmaybe most of all, it re-quires some smarts.Knowing when to take ad-vantage of opportunities,having some guile andhaving played threeyears, (Westerkamp) hasall that.”

After going 4-15 in 2011in theprogram’s firstyearof existence, theBomberswereover .500andmadearun in the Ohio south re-gional tournament lastseason.Withmore experi-ence in2013,Roberts likeshowhis team iscoming to-gether.

“This is our third sea-son so we finally have

some guys playing withexperience,” he said,“which is critical in hav-ing a successful team.”

The 2013 seasonmarksthe first time where Rob-erts will have guys towork with for four years.With that being said, thecoach sees nothing butsuccess for his program

in the future.“… Water polo takes a

lot of attributes and may-be the greatest on is expe-rience,” Roberts said. “Tohave them for four years,if they stay with it, willcreate one of the finestteams (at the high schoollevel).”

The College of MountSt. Joseph is eager to startthe 2013 football season.WhentheLionsbeginplayon Sept. 7, the disappoint-ing 2012 season will becompletely behind them.

Last season, the pro-gram finished with a los-ing record in conferenceplay for the first timesince 2008 and just thesecond time since 2001.Five teamsfinishedaheadof Mount St. Joe in theHeartland Collegiate Ath-letic Conference stand-ings. The Lions’ 4-6 over-all recordmarked thepro-gram’s first losing seasonsince the winless 2001campaign. The seasonended with a 75-6 drub-bing at the hands of rivalThomas More College inthe Bridge Bowl.

“Coach Huber and theseniors don’t like talkingabout last year,” said sen-ior punter Greg Tabar(Colerain). “We are excit-edtomoveforward.We’replaying with a chip on ourshoulder this year.”

This year’s squad ispoised to bring Mount St.Joe back to its winningways. It will be a chal-lenge, as the Lions need toreplace All-Americanrunning back James Clayand a host of other start-ers.

“A lot of spots arewideopen,” said head coachRod Huber as his teamprepared for trainingcamp. “We’ve got a lot ofholes to fill.”

Sophomore CodyMeade will try to replaceClay, who led the nation inrushing with 212.4 yardsper game in 2012. JuniorJason Stinebaugh is themost experienced quar-terback on the roster andwill compete with fresh-men and transfers for thestarting nod. He complet-ed 21 of 64 passes withfour interceptions and ze-ro touchdowns as a back-up in 2012.

Whoever wins thestarting quarterback jobwill have somebig targetsin the passing game. 6’8”junior John Peters and6’5” senior Tyler Feine(Amelia) should win mostjump balls thrown their

way.“We should be able to

get those guys the ball inthe red zone,” said Huber.

The offensive line isled by senior BrandonChapman and juniorBrandon Keller. Seniorsafety Tyler Elrod leadsthe secondary, where hewill be joined by newstarters at both corner-back spots. Defensiveend/linebacker Adam Bi-gelow (Anderson) missedall of last season with aknee injury,butreturnsasa fifth-year senior. Nose-tackle Russell Turner an-chors the defensive line.The linebackers are themost experienced anddeepest groupondefense,with Konnor Blevins andGarrett Breiner return-ing.

Several freshmen willbe expected to contributeright away. They willbring athleticism and apositive attitude to a teamthat is eager to start freshin 2013.

“This is the most skill-ful freshman class we’vehad in my years here,”said Tabar. “As seniors,we arementoring them inthe little things, like howto get better in the filmroom.”

Tabar’s leadership onand off the field earnedhim national recognitionin 2012, when he wasnamed to the Allstate AF-CAGoodWorks TeamandtheCapital OneAcademicAll-District Team. This

will be the fourth straightseason he has started atpunter for the Lions.

“He’s the best playeronour football team,” saidHuber.

TheLions open the sea-son on September 7 at Au-gustana College. Follow-ing a bye week, the Lionshost conference foe Han-over College on Septem-ber 21.

A publication of

Last week’s questionShould the U.S. continue to

provide financial andmilitary aidto Egypt following the military’soverthrow of its democraticallyelected government and it’sdeadly attack on protesters?

“I’m glad you asked thatquestion since President Oba-ma has absolutely no idea whattodo inall of theMiddleEast, letalone Egypt.

“As Egypt burns and thou-sands die in the streets, ourpresident enjoyed anotherround of golf on Martha’s Vine-yard. Now that he is back towork in theOvalOfficewe’d ex-pect him to roll up his sleevesand get to work on these urgentproblems.

“But no, he’s planning a bustour to visit his rah-rah sup-porters who will dutifullyswoon at his every word of sar-casm towards Congress whiletotally ignoring theMiddleEastand all the other REAL prob-lems he promised to solve in hisfirst term.

“For me to suggest what ‘theU.S.’ shoulddo ispointless sincethere is a wide gulf betweenAmerica’s goals and whatevergoals Barack Obama, formerSecretary of State Hillary Clin-ton and now Secretary of StateJohn Kerry have in mind forEgypt, etc.

“Obama supported the over-throw of former EgyptianPresident Hosni Mubarak andthe installation of PresidentMorsi who replaced Mubarakthrough what were believed tobe free elections.

“That Morsi, a dedicatedmember of the well-known ter-rorgroup,TheMuslimBrother-hood, immediately set about re-neging on his election promisesand proceeded to suspend free-doms and constitutional law inorder to create a Sharia Law ca-liphate cannot be ignored.

“Perhaps Obama is sympa-thetic towards Morsi havingdeep personal feelings of hisown regarding broken cam-paign promises.”

“Why is theUSgivingmoneyto anyone – for any reason –when we can’t pay our ownbills???”

J.K.

“IseenoreasontogiveEgyptanymoney for anything. If theyareour friends I suredon’twantto know our enemies.

“None of those countrieshave anything good for Ameri-ca, theyarequestionable at bestand I would divorce myselffrom all of them. How manytimes does the hand have to bebitten before you stay awayfrom the dog?”

NEXT QUESTIONShould fans at sporting eventshave to conform to a “code ofconduct”? What types of behav-ior should be regulated?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via e-mail. Send youranswers toespangler@communitypress.com withChatroom in the subject line.

Stepping into a new commu-nity and new school year isalways exciting. My familyand I are overwhelmed by howwelcoming the community hasbeen and it has made our tran-sition all that much easier. I amforever appreciative of thewarm reception shown to myfamily.

As with any transition,there is little time to rest or getsettled. The work is alreadymoving quickly.

Late this August, the stateof Ohio is expected to releasethe new report card on schools.The format and rating systemis far different from previousyears.

Mariemont will have astrong showing in most areason the report card, as we havealways been about a great andcomprehensive education.When we see a student, we seemore than a test. The samefollows with our schools.

Along withother south-west Ohioschool dis-tricts, we havereleased aquality profile.This profileincludes mea-sures beyondthe test scoresthat make upthe state re-

port card and seeks to showthe comprehensive picture ofthe total value that our schoolprovides to students.

We value the data from thestate report card, and we willuse this data, as well as fromthe new quality profile, toshow the totality of what ourschools are doing.

I encourage you to explorethe quality profile, which youcan find on our website or inany of the school buildingoffices.

Education is changing.What all these measurementsshow is that there are numer-ous ways to measure schools.

We welcome all of the mea-surements because it is theonly way to show the totality ofthe excellence and quality thatour schools provide.

Regardless of the measure,I can tell you that our districtstudents have never beenmore prepared for the future.We continue to have high ex-pectations of teaching andlearning, and we will continueto focus on helping studentsidentify career interests, of-fering students more opportu-nities for hands-on use oflearning technology and reduc-ing operating costs and ex-penses.

On Aug. 26, our doors willopen for another school year.My three children - Cameryn,Audrey and Talon - will startschool with the rest of the

district students, and I knowthey are excited to exploretheir new school.

Our beautiful buildingshave provided us with an op-portunity to provide a 21stcentury education to our stu-dents, giving them the toolsand confidence in technologyto participate in global educa-tion and workplace settings.

“I am happy to join withyou today in what will godown as the greatest demon-stration for freedom in thehistory of our nation.”

That’s howMartin LutherKing opened his “I Have aDream” speech on Aug. 28,1963. National civil rightsleaders had called for 100,000to march onWashington forfreedom and jobs soon afterPresident Kennedy sent hiscivil rights bill to Capitol Hill.Cincinnati activists helpedKing’s prediction come true.

Abysmal race relationsdefined the South and much ofthe North. Cincinnati, justnorth of state-mandated seg-regation, had made some nota-ble gains. African-Americanleaders had pressured down-town restaurants and ConeyIsland to integrate, and werenow focused on ending dis-criminatory housing.

Local leaders like Clyde“Jimmy” Vinegar of CORE,William Bowen of the NAACP,and future Cincinnati MayorTed Berry led a contingent ofabout 500 to the nation’s cap-ital. “The march will givewitness that the Negro is unit-ed in America,” Berry told theEnquirer in 1963. The Rev.Fred Shuttlesworth hadmoved here, but continued theintense fight in his nativeBirmingham.

Amix ofAfrican-Americancitizens, whiteclergy andothersboarded aspecially ar-ranged trainat Union Ter-minal. Theypacked twobox lunches

and prepared for possibleviolence. They sang freedomsongs along the way, andpicked up additional demon-strators near Portsmouth andAshland, Kentucky.

“The train ride gave ussuch a warm, friendly feel-ing,” recalls Patricia Hogue(widow of University of Cin-cinnati Bearcat basketballplayer Paul Hogue) and asenior at Central State Univer-sity at the time. Donations tothe local NAACP enabled herto attend. “It was the mostwonderful experience.”

It is a dream deeply rootedin the American dream.

Would this crew face dan-ger? Would the march haveany real impact? Could thecivil rights bill become law?The Cincinnati Post andTimes Star editorialized, “Wefavor the public accommoda-tions section of the civil rightsbill but think reform will

come almost as fast without alaw as with it.” Both of Ohio’ssenators, Frank Lausche andStephen Young, declined aninvitation to attend. The un-certainty is what made it adream.

“We were the first train toarrive at Union Station,” re-calls Hogue, “and we weresome of the first to make it tothe Washington Monument.”They got a close view of Peter,Paul, andMary, Harry Bela-fonte, and Joan Baez. Later inthe day, at the other end of thereflecting pool, spoke A. Phil-lip Randolph, Shuttlesworth,and of course the headliner,Dr. King. Press reports andrecollections by local partici-pants paint the day as “glori-

ous,” “wonderful,” “peaceful,”and “promising.”

The march ended as anapparent success. In total,200,000 attended. Most Cincin-nati marchers returned homethat evening. An intense de-bate on the bill, the assassina-tion of its chief sponsor, andincreased press coveragefollowed. A year later, Kenne-dy’s successor signed the billwith King and other leadersstanding behind him to helpfulfill the dream.

“Free at last! Free at last!Thank God almighty, we arefree at last.”

MARIEMONT—This time ofyear it becomes apparent justhow valuable Louise Schom-burg is to the village.

“Daylilies are starting toopen,” she says. “Spirea aredoing nicely.”

She’s sitting on a bench,admiring the beauty andcharm of Mariemont Square.It’s an unusual sight.

Not that she’s in the square,or that it’s beautiful andcharming, but that the 66-year-old is sitting. Usually she’s onher feet or on her hands andknees, trimming, weeding,mulching or otherwise makingthings look nice.

“Louise is not afraid towork,” says John Scherpen-berg, Mariemont’s servicedepartment superintendent.Almost every day, except whenshe volunteers at a no-kill ani-mal shelter, hesees her tendingto the village’sparks and publicspaces.

“She’ll havethe chainsaw, theweed eater. You’llsee her later thatnight whenyou’re goinghome, and she’sworking in heryard,” he says.

“She’s justbeen a dynamo,”says Mayor DanPolicastro.

In addition to the square,her handiwork is visible atDale Park; the municipal build-ing; the Concourse, a park thatoverlooks the Little MiamiRiver valley; and the Old TownCenter park, which is justacross the street from Schom-burg’s home.

That’s where this story real-ly begins – at the stone houseshe bought in 1981, about 10years after she began teachingfourth grade in Mariemont.The yard was moss and weeds“and scrubby little bushes.”Within a few years, though, theself-taught horticulturist cre-ated what now resembles asplendid English garden,where something is bloomingall through the growing season.

Then she and a neighborturned their attention to thepark across the street. From ahorticultural perspective, itwas a mess, even “kind ofcreepy,” Schomburg says.

Plants were overgrown,especially taxus shrubs. “Theyhad gotten so high you couldn’tsee into the park.”

She and the neighbor askedand received permission fromthe village to spruce things up.“I think people thought wewere totally insane,” Schom-burg says.

The duo trimmed, weededand bought a few plants, butnot many. Mostly, Schomburgdivided perennials from herown lush yard and plantedthem in the park.

She loves perennials. Annu-als, not so much. “They’rethere for such a short time,”she says. “You can find peren-nials that will bloom at differ-ent times, with different col-ored foliage and differentshapes that will look nice allthe time.”

Eventually, her neighbor

moved, but Schomburg stayedthe course. She never put pen-cil to paper to map out a planfor the park at Old Town Cen-ter. Rather, “it’s just up here,”she says, pointing to her head.

Today, the park is a beauti-ful blend of boxwoods andasters and loosestrife and core-opsis and many other plants.The fountain is no longer ob-scured by overgrown shrubs.It’s a place people enjoy.

When Schomburg retiredfrom teaching in 2000, she hadeven more time to devote togardening. So she turned herattention to Dale Park.

Invasive honeysuckle hadgrown “waaay taller than Iam.” It covered large portionsof the park’s perimeter. As aresult, residents were unableto see the park’s lower field,and some parents were reluc-tant to allow their children toplay there.

Back she wentto village counciland got permis-sion to volunteerher services. Shebought a chain-saw, learned touse it and went towork. She woreout the chain andbought a new one.A former stu-dent, Chad Os-good, assistedwith the project.

They rid thearea of honey-

suckle, which “opened it uptremendously,” she says. Peo-ple who drive or walk alongPlainville Road can look westinto the park and see pictur-esqueMariemont CommunityChurchMemorial Chapel, builtin the architectural style of anEnglish parish church.

Her efforts have not goneunnoticed by residents. Fiveyears ago they voted to honorher as Mariemont’s citizen ofthe year.

“Please mention the help Iget from the maintenancedepartment,” she says. Scher-penberg turns that complimentaround, noting that the work ofSchomburg and her helpersfrees up his four-person de-partment for other tasks.

Policastro, too, took note ofher talents and tapped her tolead the village’s parks ad-visory board. She brings apractical approach to thatunpaid job.

She prefers low-mainte-nance plants that don’t requirefrequent deadheading or wa-tering. Again, perennials winout.

“I’m getting older,” shenotes. Plus, “You don’t havehuge crowds of people wantingto go out and sweat in the sum-mertime.”

Some people, she knows,like to see vibrant, splashyflower displays. But it’s impor-tant, she feels, that the vil-lage’s natural and built envi-ronments complement eachother. So there’s an understat-ed elegance to her plantings.

“How can you go wrongwith the architecture of thesebuildings?” she says, strollingthroughMariemont Square.“You want to keep (the gar-dens) simple enough that whenyou drive through, you see thebuildings. It’s just a nice, easy-going green area.

Cleaning out the freez-er is never an easy task. Idon’t know how I accu-mulate so much food inthere! I ran across acontainer of sour pie

cherriesthe otherday fromlast yearand knew Ihad to dosomethingwith them,and fast.So I madethis cherrycobbler.This is

really delicious eatenwarmwith a dollop ofwhipped cream or icecream and perfect forthat Labor Day gather-ing.

Cherry or berrycobbler

I have made this withblueberries, blackberriesand raspberries. Justabout any fruit is good.After baking the batterrises up, surrounding theberries.

6 tablespoons butter1 scant cup flour2 teaspoons baking powder3⁄4 cup sugar2⁄3 cupmilk2 generous cups cherries orberries (I used sour piecherries)

Preheat oven to 375degrees. In an 8-inchsquare or 2-quart bakingdish, melt butter in oven.Carefully remove and setaside. Whisk flour, bak-ing powder and sugartogether. Add milk andstir until just combined.Pour batter into meltedbutter but don’t stir. Addcherries. Bake 30-40

minutes or until cakeportion is golden andberries exude juices.

Layered Greek dipFrom Anderson Town-

ship reader Linda Smithvia Regan Smith Knaus.“One of my favorites,”Smith told me.

8 oz. cream cheese, softened1 tablespoon lemon juice1 teaspoon dried Italianseasoning

2-3 cloves garlic, minced11⁄2 cups prepared hummus1 cup unpeeled, choppedcucumber

1 cup chopped tomato1⁄2 cup pitted choppedKalamata olives

1⁄2 cup crumbled feta1⁄3 cup sliced green onions

Pita or multigrain tortillachips

Beat cream cheese,juice, seasoning andgarlic until smooth.Spread into deep 9-inchpie plate or shallow serv-ing dish. Evenly spreadhummus over creamcheese layer, then top, inorder, with cucumbers,tomatoes, olives, cheeseand onions.

Beer cheeseWith Oktoberfest

coming soon, I knew therequests for this wouldstart coming in. Depend-ing upon the kind of proc-essed cheese and beeryou use, this could be amild or spicy cheese dip.

This is good with pretzelbread sticks.

Blend together untilsmooth:

8 oz. each: cream cheese,softened, and favoriteprocessed cheese

Readers want toknow

7-Up Cake: For clar-ification on DianeByrne’s recipe that Ipublished, the pudding isone 1 oz. box. It is a pack-age contain four serv-ings. Check out my blogfor more recipes.

Cherry bounce: Howmuch bourbon? Enough

to cover the cherries byan inch or so. Some read-ers use vodka, rum orgrain alcohol. The con-tainer should be glass,since it’s not air-perme-able, with a tight lid.Canning jars work well.A reader wants to use asugar substitute. I sug-gested Splenda, but havenot tried it.

Tips from readers’kitchen

Greyhound Restau-rant’s pasta Gabrielle:Thanks to the readerswho reminded me aboutthis previously publishedrecipe that MaryAnn B.wanted. It’s on my blog.

Can you help?

Poor man’s lobster: Ididn’t catch the reader’sname, but she is cravingthis dish. “It’s made withcodfish that you cook inwater seasoned withperhaps butter, salt andother ingredients. Afterit’s cooked, you servewith drawn butter. Iwould love to have arecipe similar to the oneI lost.”

Twin Trolley’s BBQ:For Carol E., who lovedthe sandwich of this now-closed and, I might add,much-loved restaurant.If you have a similarrecipe, please share.

Manyet’s Bakerycheesecake: Anotherrequest from this pop-ular bakery, which was inNewport and now closed.For Pat B. “They had acheesecake like no otherI have ever had that wasreally great. If in anyway you can find thatrecipe, I would surelyappreciate it!”

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Freezing herbs in oilfor sauteing: Actually Igot this from Amy Tobinwhen I was a guest onher radio show. For nicesauté oil that you canfreeze, pour olive oil intoice cube trays and add athin layer of your favor-ite herb(s).

Do you know the bestway to protect yourselfwhen receiving a largecheck?

Onewoman says shewishes she knew becauseher checkwas stolen andcashedmonths ago – andshe’s been unable to re-cover themoney.

Earlier this year,HeatherWeismann ofDelhi Township got acash advance formorethan $500. But before shecould cash it, the check

was stolenfrom herparked car.“When Igot back tomy car itwasmiss-ing. So Icalled theplace thatwrote thecheck to

see if it was cashed. Thenext day it was cashedand it wasn’t even signedbyme,”Weismann said.

Weismann got a copyof the check and foundalthough she had notsigned the back of it,someone else forged her

signature before gettingit cashed. “They forgedmy name and then thebank allowed them tocash the checkwithoutme being present,”Weis-mann said.

After doing a lot ofinvestigating on her own,Weismann determinedthe personwho cashedthe check had an accountat that bank – and thatperson’s bank accountnumberwaswritten onthe back of the check.

Weismann contactedthe bank, which notifiedthe check casher. “Thebankmanager had calledthem and said, ‘You’re

supposed to bring themoney back.’ She said,‘Well, HeatherWeismannsigned the check over tome and I havewitness-es,’”Weismann said.

ButWeismann hadalready filed a policereport alleging the per-sonwho cashed the checkis a thief. Despite all this,Weismann still didn’thave hermoney back,which causedmajorproblems.

“I haven’t been able topay certain ofmy bills soI have late fees coming –andmy personal accountbasically is horrible. Ican’t use it right now

because of this,” she said.Based on the informa-

tion she’s uncovered,Weismann said she be-lieves police should ableto find the thief and takeaction.

“They forged a checkand stole a check. Theycashed a check. Altogeth-er that’s three thingsagainst this person. Theyneed to pay for what’shappened,”Weismannsaid.

I contacted the bankand, following an investi-gation, the bank returnedthemore than $500 toWeismann plusmoney toreimburse her for the

overdraft charges sheincurred. A spokesmanfor the bank agrees thisappears to be theft. Thebank has turned over itsfindings to the CincinnatiPolice Department.

So protect yourselfwhenever you get a checkby immediately writingon the back, “For DepositOnly.” There’s no need tosign it, just put it in yourbank as soon as possible.
